I wanted to share pictures of a beautiful seedling that bloomed for me today. It is one of Subhana Ansari's of Flourishing Daylilies, and she has given me permission to post these pictures. She shared three of her seedlings with me a few weeks ago -- and all three have scapes now! This is the first that has bloomed, her Seedling #D234A, and the cross is WONDER OF IT ALL X BLUE BEAT. It is a small flowered daylily, and this first bloom measured just about 4" for me. It has a brilliant large neon chartreuse throat and wonderful colors, and I love the form!

When I first noticed it early this morning and the petals were not quite open all the way:

And later in the day - sorry, stamens are gone
Thumb of 2013-03-31/Betja/9cc8ab

I am really into the smalls and minis, and I can only dream of someday having a seedling this pretty! On her website she posts pictures of all her beautiful seedlings and introductions -- a real treat! And she is also Subhanaflourishing on the Lily Auction.

Here is the link to her website, if anyone wants to have a look:
